In bici da Lubecca a Bad Schwartau

This is a nice, easygoing ride from the charming Hanseatic city of Lübeck to the spa town of Bad Schwartau—perfect if you’re looking for a leisurely cycle! You’ll cover just under 8 km, mostly on smooth asphalt and well-maintained cycleways (over 60% is dedicated bike path), so it’s great even if you’re not a hardcore cyclist.

Starting out in Lübeck, you’ll be pedaling away from its beautiful old town, famous for its brick Gothic architecture and UNESCO World Heritage status. The route is mostly flat, with only gentle elevation changes—you’ll barely notice the climbs! You’ll cruise through some quiet roads and even a few pedestrian areas.

As you roll into Bad Schwartau (famous for its fruit jams and wellness spas), you’ll notice a peaceful, small-town vibe. The whole route is perfect for a relaxed ride or commuting, and you hardly encounter any tricky surfaces—just some paving stones in spots. All in all, it’s an easy, scenic spin connecting two relaxing north German gems.
